Developers on the original Metroid Prime have expressed frustration and anger at not being included in the credits of the recently released remaster.

Technical lead engineer Jack Matthews quotetweeted Kirsch’s statement and said that the exclusion was a “travesty.” Matthews also made a statement to Axios, “When my son plays Metroid Prime on the Switch for the first time, the fact that he won’t see [my] and my colleagues’ names in the credits as the original creators is a punch in the gut.”
While many studios did amazing work on the remaster, I’m let down Metroid Prime’s Remaster does not include the full original game credits. I worked with so many amazing people on the game and everyone’s name should be included in the remaster, not just a single card like this. pic.twitter.com/Yvojf9f9Mq
